Under a will
A city lawyer with a plan. A small town handyman with a grudge. And a bookstore that isn’t big enough for both of them.
Elena Vance lives her life by the numbers. As a high powered attorney, she deals in facts, logic, and iron clad contracts. So, when she inherits her eccentric aunt’s crumbling bookstore in a tiny Maine town, she has a simple exit strategy: fix the accounts, sell the building, and get back to her real life.
But Aunt Margaret’s will has one final, frustrating clause.
To claim her inheritance, Elena must co-manage The Inkwell for one year with Caleb Miller, the grumpy, flannel wearing handyman who thinks Elena is a heartless intruder. Even worse? The shop is fifty thousand dollars in debt, and the only way to save it is to pull off the town's massive Centennial Ball in just three months.
Between a leaky roof, a "screaming" water heater, and a shared apartment that’s way too small, Elena and Caleb are at war. But as they work together to save the shop, the friction between them starts to feel less like anger and more like heat.
